    I am assuming you mean body scale and not a food scale...Digital scales are the most accurate. I like my Weight Watchers one. Don't go cheap-you get what you pay for in this case!

    :flowerforyou: Good Luck

    I knocked mine off the counter last night and broke it :grumble: guess I'll be making a trip to Wallyworld this afternoon for a new one.

    I just have a cheapo---the one I just broken I've had for years.

    Yeah, I realized now that I should've specified that.

    Those are supposed to be good, maybe I'll get one of theirs. Thanks!! Oh, is that your puppy in your ticker? He/she is adorable!!

    My digital scale from Conair was ok, but lately its been giving me strange numbers. I'll weigh myself a few times to make sure its correct, and today and yesterday it was giving me 2-8 lb differences! So I think it finally broke.

    Here's a great article from Prevention Magazine. They tested the accuracy and repeatability of many scales; here are the best scales available for the consumer:
